In no particular order....
1. Sparkling Green Apple
2. Blazin' Blueberry
3. Tangerine Spice
I used to own some of that iced pineapple and I loved it until (no joke) one day this really wierd guy came to school wearing it!!!Ever since then it's seemed much less feminine and appealing to me...

PEARBERRY.....just smelling that stuff puts me in a great mood.
B&BW had a sale last summer and I just about bought out their entire Pearberry collection. It was sad. I haven't been in there in a while though--what new scents are the best? I want to know! Also, do y'all know if they have a website where you can buy online? That would be the coolest. Thanks chicas!

B&BW does not have a website, however, After an unfortunate sunsweet kiwi incident where i almost spazzed out in the store b/c they didn't have any in stock and claimed it to be 'discontinued" but attempted to reassure me by saying 'we don't think its discontinued for good, just for the summer' (girls- i was hyperventialting-- can you say, and the award goes to...) anyway...they gave me the 800 number where you can order direct from (and even with shipping they actually had better prices (promotions) then in the store, plus shipping which she told me would take upwards of a week, actually arrived in 2 days. Here's the number: 800-518-3616.

Hi girls!!
Thank you so much soror6, sigmagrrl, and carnation!! I remembered all your raving about Warm Vanilla Sugar, and after my finals were over---I raced to the B and BW store!!!
They are having an awesome sale now! So many things are on sale. For ex: 5 little things are for 9.99 (for ex: little lotions, little body washes, etc.). And, the regular sized (10 oz.) are 3 for 24 dollars!! You save approx. 8 bucks! So...I picked up the WARM VANILLA SUGAR (body splash, cream, wash) after all your raves...and it's sooooo awesome! I usually hate vanilla scents, but this one won me over!!
So thanks gals! LOL, my bf is especially partial to Warm Vanilla Sugar  .

Bulletin! I've been sitting next to a B&B manager in a seminar all week and she says that they're discontinuing several of their scents this month. Some names I remember are Freesia, Green Apple, Ginger Lime, and Toasted Hazelnut. She says the sale offers just about anything in those lines at 5 for $19.99. I'm going to go check out their sale!

WELLLLL..
i can ramble off every name of every current bath and body works scent..cause i work there!!

and let me tell u..it gets to u after a while.. they all start to smell the same..and i can tell what flavors are combinations of older scents too..
ALSO.. victoria secret is from the same company (the limited owns both and structure, lerner NYCco.,limited stores, and lane bryant.)
soooo many scents from victorias secret will smell like BBW and so forth..
for example: honeyed almond (new scent) is a mix between toasted hazelnut, creamy coconut
orange blossom: cotton blossum and tangerine spice
also many of the holiday scents and discontinued scents are boxed up and sent to the nearby warehouse where they are sent back to the store at certain promotions times..like summer(NOW) and right after christmas..ull find deals like buy one get one free of all the discontinued scents like green apple, and many older scents..at great deals..
but many of the scents that hvae been discontinued can be made in a way.. by mixing a few scents..if u need the 411 on anything in particular! let me know...ill be happy to share
oh yes and i complained about the discontiuing of vanilla lace from victoria..it was my FAVORITE!!! BUT if u go to Body Shop..which is a similar store..their vanilla is the closest ive ever smelled to vanilla lace 
and my favorite BBW scent for now..i change my mind every time im at work..LOL is juniper breeze..

Back to the top!  I'm bringing it back because with all these daughters, I'll be making several treks to the mall B and B for the holidays.
Does anyone know the latest scents? Is Warm Vanilla Sugar still around? I know I'll have to get Coconut for one but I'm open for the rest. What's fantastic?
Have y'all tried their various creamy caramel candles? Those are magic--you can smell them for hours after you blow them out! I really stocked up this year because you can only get them through Halloween.

Hi, zntke!
No name change, it's just that a sorority office+the honors program+parttime work+various other clubs mean that she doesn't get online much except for classwork.
Heck, we just saw her this past weekend for the first time since rush 2 months ago!

Warm Vanilla Sugar. The name just drips goodness doesn't it.
Yummy. I've never seen it around- maybe I should put it on my christmas list.
I love :
B&BW- Cotton Blossom
Freesia
Vic. Secret- Secret Crush
Green Apple (I don't know if they still have it or not)
I really don't like pear scents.
JEss
